The structure of a substrate P strongly resembles substrate Q. In an experiment, By mistake P was used instead of Q as a substra

te for the enzyme, Q-ase. The results obtained were identical to the results that would have been obtained using substrate Q. Why did substrate P work in place of substrate Q?

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

C) P and Q have similar binding properties

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <u><em>Enzymes are biological catalysts that speeds up chemical reactions. Substrates are substances that are acted on by an enzyme to form a product.</em></u>
  • <u><em>An enzyme catalyzed reaction occurs when the substrate binds to the active site of an enzyme to form and enzyme-substrate complex. </em></u>
  • <em><u>Substrate P and Q are structurally similar which means they are in a position of binding and fitting in the active site of an enzyme. The strong structural similarity means that the binding properties of these two different substrates may be similar. </u></em>
  • <em><u>Formation of similar products or results when acted upon by an enzyme mean they are similar in terms of their binding properties, and thus the production of similar product.</u></em>

Why does the reduction of the dye DCPIP work best using the chloroplasts whose outer envelopes have been damaged during preparat
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

NADP is the cofactors in photosynthesis which loses electrons,becomes reduced(NADPH) in photosynthesis. It transfer  electrons  in reduced form(NADPH) into the stroma of the chloroplast. The H is splits into e- and H+

These electrons for the ETC chains, generates the PMF for pumping H+ as protrons into the thylakoid  intramembranes.

Outer membrane covers  the intramembrane space, between these two membranes layers. The protons in the intramembrane space generate the electrochemical gradient for the supply of  the energy used by ATPase synthase for ATP synthesis from phosphorylation with ADP.

The chloroplast is made up of both the outer and inner membrane,separated by the intramembrane space. The walls of the intramembrane space is guided by the outer envelope. 

Therefore with the outer envelope removed, the intramembrane is exposed,more protons(H+) are released, but can not be held in the outer envelope to form electrochemical gradients,beacause the intramembrane space is now permable.

Thus   the rate of reduction of DCPIP is faster.The  color changes to colorless increases when reduced , from blue color.

Describe the two fields of study comparative and molecular
levacccp [35]
The anatomy (Comparative Anatomy) chart contains the ones that say " compares the limbs of different organisms" and "compares fossilized structures to living organisms".
The cells (Molecular Biology) chart contains the ones that say "compares the genomes of different organisms" and "compares cells of organisms".
If this is for Plato there should be a chart that has one column for anatomy(Comparative Anatomy) and one for cells(Molecular Biology). Hope this helps.
